Sir, Regarding Jayanthi Rajkumar Kumbhar's message on Book lost and replacement. I fully agree with the Sri P.Munuswamy's(NITT) opinion, more over if the book goes out of print a xerox copy of the book may be replaced (to fill the gap the subject) with the amount collected from the candidate who lost the book, For this type activities a clear policy is to be laid down by the apex body of the institute. Replacing some other book in the place of book lost is completely ruled out.

And with this version, we have aimed to provide some valuable updates to the sections on Moving Image Works and Audio Works in particular. The goal of the Recommended Formats has always been to provide useful information furthering the shared goal of ensuring the preservation of and long-term access to creative works. By providing up-to-date information about the file types, physical and technical characteristics and associated metadata which support these worthy goals, the Statement hopes to provide the building blocks upon which libraries can build their collections, now and for the future. The Library remains committed to acquiring and preserving digital works and to providing whatever support it can to other similarly committed stakeholders. We shall continue to build our collections with their preservation and long-term access firmly in mind; and we shall continue to engage with others in the community in efforts such as the Recommended Formats Statement. We encourage any and all feedback and comments (http://www.loc.gov/preservation/resources/rfs/contacts.html) others might have on the Statement that might make it more useful for both our needs and for the needs of anyone who might find it worthwhile in their own work. And we shall continue to engage in an annual review process to ensure that it meets the needs of all stakeholders in the preservation and long-term access of creative works.

Dear All, In response to Jayanthi Rajkumar Kumbhar message on Book lost and replacement. It is informed that if a book is lost by a user, he/she may replace it by the same title, author and with same edition or higher edition. If the book is a library edition (Hardbound), it is to be replaced by the hard bound title only and not by the cheap edition of the title. If not, double the cost of the book is to be recovered from the user with occurred dues if any. It would be better to have a policy on the matter included in the Library policy approved by the apex authority of the institution. If the librarian accepts a different title for the lost one, she/he will be held for the same and have to face the consequences. With regards, P.

Subject: Book Lost and Replacement Dear Librarians, In case of replacement ideally one should accept exact copy or latest edition of a book (lost) if available, and not any book.

In our library the policy is replacement will be exact copy [latest edition if available] or double amount of the market price of the available book/edition. In case of lost of out of print / not available in market fine amount to be paid. Further, fellow librarians shall mention name and Library address in full while placing a query to this forum with due respect. As others will spend some time to answer your query.
